ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

From fireside folk sessions and concerts, to full blown pub shanty singing, from tales of pirates, whales and shipwrecks; Albany International Folk ‘n’ Shanty Festival turns the city’s historic centre into a playground of maritime culture. Set on the shores of the majestic waters of Mamang Koort (Heart of the Whale), join us for this annual festival that celebrates the heart and soul of Albany/ Kinjarling.
